Amy, girl, DTMFA. If that's not a red flag, I don't know what is.

You deserve a whole cake for that. #teamcake

Please point out where in my comment I equated the two. I was saying my best friend put in six years working child sex abuse cases day in and day out. Some children were abused by other, older children, like a 12 year old who put a 3 year old in the hospital, for example. Some were abused by adults. I don't know all…

This reply deserves to be framed or something. This x 1000. My bestie worked in Child Protective Services where I'm from. Child on child and adult on child sex abuse is rampant. At all income levels. I had no idea until she told me the numbers. Hundreds of cases in ONE county alone, and it's a suburb of a mid sized…

His shower/sex scene sans shirt was the only saving grace of that horrid movie he and Taylor Schilling made. Terrible acting all around. I can only guess there was a bad script and a bad director, because girl can actually act. Him, I'm not so sure about.

Thanks for adding your story. Seems like the same as PMS, our experiences run the gamut.

I just had a total hysterectomy for severe endometriosis; it was the best decision I've ever made. After only a few weeks out, I feel better than I have in years. BUT, I've had very strong menopause symptoms: at least 3 hot flashes a day, night sweats every night and crying fits over absolutely nothing (which is very…

Yep, heads would roll if that independent dude from Vermont was in charge, the guy who is left of the Democratic Party. His name escapes me now. I hope as punishment for all of the Republicans' stupidity that we get a far left or at the very least, left President next. Doubtful, but a girl can dream.

It is backwards, but so often the people who espouse these beliefs are middle class or working poor themselves. A book called "What's the Matter with Kansas?" explains why conservative poor and middle class vote against their own economic interests. Usually the conservative rich like the Koch brothers and others are…

The main ones are Obamacare will cost way too much to implement (all of a sudden those people are worried about the deficit and debt after two unpaid wars and a Medicare Part D prescription drug benefit when Bush was in office,) force people who don't want insurance to get it (muh liberty!,) it's scary socialism…

You can always call and say thank you for standing up for ________. I worked for a Member of Congress, and it's always nice to receive mail, calls and letters from constituents who are happy their legislator is fighting the good fight or representing them well because they get so few of those sorts of messages. As a…

He is talented, and I do believe that one shouldn't shy away from trumpeting one's own horn, but it seems that the one who Kanye is most desperately trying to convince he's a genius is... himself. He seems so thirsty to be accepted; to be extremely sensitive to criticism so innocuous from a doof like Jimmy Kimmel…

LOL You've never read the text of the Roe v Wade decision, have you? The Supreme Court found that state abortion restrictions cannot violate a woman's 14th Amendment right to equal protection and due process, and ruled that the 14th Amendment includes the right to privacy, i.e. to determine when or if she has…

You know she is thinking, "Nope, Imma commute, bitch! Have you seen Las Vegas?"

Yeah, if ever that is a polite laugh to a creepy statement, that is it. I met Bill Nye before and he was very nice, but I did cringe when he said that.

If you are super drunk? A very drunk guy came into my old house's kitchen at midnight and tried to make a casserole. I slept through the whole thing, but my roommate dealt with him. He explained that's how my casserole dish got broken. He said at first he was scared because he thought it was a burglar, but then…

You are not the arbiter of when the culture wars in America are over. Sorry. That's just your opinion, yo.

Uh, I know the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. My sister has Type 1 and has had it for over 25 years. I don't need you to explain anything to me. What is evident is that you TOTALLY didn't watch the video, which is more about how not to be a dick to larger people by assuming they are fat because you…

You're welcome! Please spread the word.

This talk always seems relevant. http://www.ted.com/talks/peter_at…
